The first two books in the bestselling Loki: A Bad God's Guide series – packed with doodles, magic and mischief! This book bind-up includes Loki: A Bad God's Guide to Being Good and Loki: A Bad God's Guide to Taking the Blame.

"You must read these books" – Jamie Smart, bestselling author of Bunny vs Monkey

I am the god of tricksters. Well, I was until last Tuesday. Now I’m an eleven-year-old boy...

Loki the mighty trickster god has been banished by Odin to live on Earth as an eleven-year-old school boy. Forbidden from revealing his AWESOME godly powers, Loki must do enough good deeds to earn his place back. As he records the truth in his magical (judgemental) diary, it seems like Loki might be a lost cause...

And in Loki's second laugh-out-loud adventure, A Bad God's Guide to Taking the Blame, Thor's hammer goes missing after his birthday party, and everyone blames Loki. But Loki is innocent! (For once.) Determined to clear his name and prove that he is a Good God now, Loki sets out to find the real thief.

About the Author

Louie Stowell writes books about magic, gods and monsters (mostly). She has written carefully researched books about space, ancient Egypt, politics and science but eventually lapsed into just making stuff up. She has written fiction for 8–12 (Nosy Crow and Walker Books US), but Loki: A Bad God's Guide series is her first as both author and illustrator, inspired by her research into Norse myths. Louie writes full time in London, where she lives with her wife, Karen, and a creepy puppet that is probably cursed.
